3 Bed Terraced House For Sale Towngate, Halifax, HX2

Located right opposite the Midgley village shop yet set well back from the road, this wonderful, cosy home occupies the corner of one of the former Co-operative buildings. Being dual-aspect it enjoys breath-taking countryside views and is flooded throughout with natural light. Packed with characterful features such as fireplaces, wood floors, exposed purlins & stone windowsills, yet beautifully modernised and presented there's absolutely no work to do - simply move in, unpack and relax!

On approach there's a small cobbled area to the front of the property, perfect for storing firewood and tucking the bins away out-of-sight. A brand new front door opens into a practical lobby area, with room for hanging coats and removing muddy boots before stepping into the main house. The living room is a great size with high ceilings, solid wood flooring and stunning countryside views from the window. But the main feature in here is the beautifully-restored stone fireplace with wood-burning stove. There's clever lighting hidden away to illuminate the stonework and create a gorgeous night-time ambiance - with plenty of room for a couple of sofas this is a wonderfully cosy place to escape the elements. After a long day simply light the stove, put your feet up and relax with a box set and hard-earned drink. What could be better?

Next to the living room we'll find the kitchen-diner, another excellent room with a dual aspect giving more lovely views. The kitchen has been fully replaced in recent years, with quality shaker units, wooden worktops and a large Belfast sink making for a modern country feel. An impressive range cooker creates a focal point while an integrated dishwasher takes care of the washing up. There's space for a large fridge-freezer, washing machine and tumble drier, plus a dining table alongside. The gas combination boiler is hidden away in a cupboard and, up a couple of steps, the back door gives access to generous rear patio space and the garden.

Back into the living room, and stairs lead up onto the first floor, where we'll find two bedrooms and the bathroom. As we climb higher into the house the views get better and better, and all the rooms have the same lovely outlook over countryside towards Luddenden and beyond. The first bedroom is a small double / large single with a dual aspect, the second window looking over the rear. Unsurprisingly this is a very light room, ideal as a bedroom, or perfect as a study - although with views like those you might not get much work done!

Next door the bathroom is a very good size, featuring a bath with thermostatic shower over, WC and a large basin. It's very well-presented in white, with a Victorian-style towel radiator and plenty of room for storage.

The second bedroom on this floor is a great double room, with the bed sitting close to the window, perfect for enjoying views of the sunrise with a morning cuppa. There's an original Victorian fireplace adding character, and space for a large wardrobe and further bedroom furniture too.

Up the stairs again and the entire second floor is taken up by a large and impressive master bedroom. Featuring sloping ceilings, exposed purlins and a gorgeous wood floor this is a room with a real wow factor! There's a large window plus two huge roof windows, making for a very light and bright space, and the views from here are simply stunning. The stone window sill is deep enough to double as a seat, perfect for watching as the light changes on the hillsides across the valley. There's plenty of in-built storage and the potential to add an ensuite shower room, if you wish. Alternatively this room would make a brilliant second reception room.

Outside, the property just keeps on surprising, with excellent outdoor space accessed via the back door from the kitchen. Up a short flight of steps there's a lovely enclosed patio space, offering wonderful shelter and privacy. This is the ideal place for dining al-fresco, and there's plenty of room for a large dining table and the opportunity to string up some lights and create a really special atmosphere. A few more steps up and we come into the main garden space, with an open, sunny aspect and outstanding views in every direction. Currently laid mostly to grass, it's a very good size, with more than enough space to grow vegetables or have a few chickens, if you wish. There's also a very large storage shed, and with power already laid on you may want to consider adding a garden room or office too. A gate at the end of the garden opens onto the car parking space, accessed from Towngate via a well-maintained cobbled lane. Currently configured as a generous space for one car, it should be possible to trim things back and add a second space. Alternatively more parking is available on the roadside.

So how to summarise this enormously appealing home? Set in an idyllic, peaceful location with gorgeous views from every window, it's the perfect balance of carefully retained period features and modern convenience, with gas central heating and double glazed windows keeping things nice and toasty.

Set in the heart of Midgley it's beautifully presented throughout and ready to move straight into. We're expecting a lot of interest in this delightful property so call now, 24/7, or book online to view on our open day, SUNDAY 19th MAY. We're waiting to show you around!
